Exit-heading comparison
HOW TO DO IT
Exit-heading comparison
distinguish closure from emergency braking.
Preparation and setting
Use a broad clear lane where the rider already controls rounded skidded turns. Check traffic before traversing or closing uphill. A narrow corridor may not permit the chosen shape; do not force closure across other users' lines. On actual steeps, establish AMTA-08 and a sideslip fallback first.
Exercise task
- ride a short baseline set, then a comparable set with each finish aimed slightly farther across the local slope. Keep entry demand and turn count similar.
Observe and diagnose
Observe: speed at each transition, width used, and whether braking occurs only at the end.
Transfer and success check
short steep sequences. Do not run an intentionally fast open-turn comparison if it exceeds control. Success is a stable pace with room for the next turn, not a prescribed number of degrees.
Regression
isolated turns.
Progression
preserve closure within a modestly narrower lane.

editorial review notes
Terrain, traffic, visibility, fatigue and stopping outcome must be reassessed for the actual session. No certification-body approval is claimed; coaching review is pending.
